Rafraîchissements

Since I've been spending a few days at home, I've been thinking of ways to make the apartment zen while I cozy up with Rosie and catch up on my reading. The lights are low, our favorite Jo Malone candle is burning, and I was reminded of this amazing refreshment which is great if your friends are popping by on a weekend and you want to serve them something pretty but non-alcoholic. Perfect for me at the moment! I'm off to the grocery store in a few minutes to stock up on supplies for tonight's dinner and I know I'll be grabbing the ingredients for this spa water.

Just thin slice some grapefruit and orange and toss them into a pitcher with mint leaves. Cover with chilled seltzer water and serve in a highball glass with ice. Garnish with a striped paper straw and an extra sprig of mint if you have them on hand!

This particular pitcher is from Tiffany's and makes for a wonderful wedding gift at $150.
